Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
Evidence that teaching about body piercings and tattoos has been effective is the patient refuses to get eyebrow pierced with girlfriends. Getting any type of tattoo or body piercing on a body location indicates that teaching has not been effective.

Answer to Question 2

D
Feedback:
According to Erikson, the developmental task in early and mid-adolescence is to form a sense of identity versus role confusion. Main areas in which an adolescent must make gains to achieve a sense of identity include accepting a changed body image. Talking to another adolescent with the same disorder will help the patient achieve the developmental task of identity. Watching television, deciding when to take a bath, or having schoolwork provided while hospitalized does not support the developmental task of adolescence.
